What these columns mean
- Your odds —
- the share of applicants at your point level who drew this tag in the 2024 draw. Not a forecast: quotas and demand move every year.
- The badge —
- plain language for that number. Likely draw 75% or better · Real chance 40%+ · Long shot 15%+ · Point builder below that, so you are applying mainly to bank a point · Undersubscribed means fewer first-choice applicants than tags, so everyone who applied drew.
- Points needed —
- the lowest point total that still got a tag in the 2024 draw, and how that cut has moved since the earliest draw we hold.
- Tags / applicants —
- tags on offer and first-choice applicants for them, as the agency published them. Under five tags we print counts instead of a percentage, because one applicant either way swings it.

The country
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission does not publish a mapped boundary for U13 Antlerless, so there is no map to draw.
How the hunting has gone
What Nebraska Game and Parks Commission publishes for this area after each season — harvest statistics for everyone who hunted it, not draw odds and not a forecast. Nebraska Game and Parks Commission publishes these per hunt rather than per unit; the rows below add its own figures together, since a hunter holds one tag for the species in a season.
| Season | Harvest |
|---|---|
| 2024 | 8 |
| 2023 | 2 |
What the agency says about the area
NGPC split elk Unit 13 into Units 131 and 132 for the 2025 draw; the current Elk Hunting Units layer carries 131 and 132 but no 13, so the retired unit has no current boundary.
